The teaching staff at Buderim Mountain State School use school incursions and excursions to reinforce the Australian Curriculum, make it applicable to the real world, and also expand and develop children's capabilities.
Incursions and excursions are scheduled every term for all students in years P-6. Incursions are held on school premises by external suppliers, and examples include Arts Theatre Performances, Life Education lessons and the Cosmodome Science Theatre and Planetarium. Examples of local excursions include visits to the Buderim Heritage Cottage and Australia Zoo.
All excursions are planned in advance and parental consent to attend will be sought prior to the event through QParents. Participation incurs a small fee.
The highlight of our Year 6 students' calendar is the annual adventure camp at Noosa North Shore. Aimed at building leadership skills, improving teamwork capabilities and enhancing peer relationships, activities include mountain biking, bushwalking, canoeing, archery and more. We strongly encourage all students to participate and a payment is required.
